I have a Player 2 strat in sunburst and it's a nice guitar.  The sunburst is 3-color but because there is so little red, it almost likes like a 2-color, which I prefer.  Now that the honeymoon is over, I find myself playing my PRS SE 245 (Les Paul clone) more, only because I prefer the humbuckers over the single coils in the Fender.

LOL. I looked for some knobs that went up to 11, but didn't find any that weren't insanely expensive. Also, the markers on the side of the fretboard are white, so I don't have to count.

Been messing around on this recently as ive been trying to work more on in the pocket and doing less flashy stuff/song structure.  Very fun in a different way, as opposed to my usual "big/full size kit".


Sonor, sabian, meinl, and lp with some mixed hardware.  Jojo single pedal.

I could definitely see it used in place of a cajon.

I may or may not actually learn how to play, but it feels good to have a guitar again to play around with.

Lately, I find myself pulling that $100 (used) Yamaha off the wall while my $900 Taylor gathers dust.  That got me down the rabbit hole of what a better Yamaha might look like, so I did some research, made a trip to the local GC and tried a Red Label FGX3.  I think I found my next guitar.  I went back to the fancy section and tried some Taylor's and Martin's, along with some mid-level guitars in the main room, but nothing compared to that FGX3 hanging just inside the door.  If they had a decent financing option, I would have bought it.  Sweetwater has the same guitar, along with it's no-pickup version, with good financing, but I worry that whatever I choose from there, won't have the same "thing" the one at GC has.

New Charvel San Dimas in Pelham green showed up today. It's my second Charvel Pro Mod (slime green So Cal to the right). If you haven't played one, I highly recommend them. I think they're the best 80's hot-rodded strat style you can get for under $1000. My dad loved my slime green So Cal so much he went out and found a used one in the same color a few months ago. I've already played it for about 2 hours tonight. Somehow my wife hasn't figured out that there's a new guitar in my office, or she just doesn't care anymore

My total overkill for Madison Square Basement

https://imgur.com/CkLy6E3

JVM 410H, Peavey HP412 (hate this cab, this is the next thing I'm looking to upgrade), Fender Blue Jr, Blackstar HT5R. The Blues Jr. and the Blackstar probably get used the most of all the amps.

https://imgur.com/SvcwaRv

Fender Super Reverb and Line 6 Flextone III. The Line 6 is actually my son's, but it takes up too much space in his room, and we usually play together.

https://imgur.com/9rxeYqJ

My mostly mediocre board. I really do love the Friedman wah though, after trying a ton of different ones over the years.

https://imgur.com/vfS9T0m

The electrics, minus a cheap Tele copy I keep next to my bed to noodle on.

Fender MIM Black Label Tele. This one has been upgraded with Rio Grande Vintage Tallboy pickups
Relic Partscaster. Ash body, finished in nitro. Looks, plays, and sounds pretty sweet.
Gibson Les Paul Classic. My #1. Most money I've ever spent on a piece of gear and I love it.
Gibson Les Paul Studio HP
Gibson Faded Explorer. I've had this one longer than anything else. My folks got it for me as a get for getting my Eagle scout.

The JVM 410 is an awesome head. Super versatile, and you'll never run out of headroom. I have mine running through two 1960 cabs and it's probably loudest amp I've ever played through.

I've had a lot of different high gain heads over the years, and it's definitely one of, if not my favorite of all of them. The Peavey can is definitely the weak link right now. Do you have the stock G12T-75s in your 1960s?

I bought the slant "A" cab new, so that one's definitely stock. I have a square "B" on the bottom that I bought used. I'm assuming it's stock, but I've never actually looked at the speakers. The A is about 15 years old, and the B is at least 20-25. Now I kinda want to take the back off and see what's actually inside it

I actually have the full Marshall stack at my parents' place (moved a lot the past few years) and since my dad plays guitar, he hasn't complained. I've been playing mostly through my Spark40 and an Orange Rocker 32 tube combo that is plenty loud for playing with my brother on drums.

It came with a JCM900 4500 too. If I told y'all what I paid, you wouldn't believe me. The cab is beat to hell, but I think that 55 years of rocking adds to the character.

Throw some casters on it and it'll keep on rocking
In highschool I had a JCM900 as a loaner amp from a guitar shop because they sent my AVT150 head in for a warranty repair (because they kinda sucked) and it was solid. I should've made them an offer on it since it was way better than the AVT150 it was standing in for

Ok, gear pic attempt,  take 2!  

The previous pic I posted and then deleted was from the online site I bought it from, and when I got it, it turned out to be not as "minty" as the seller claimed, or the pictures showed.  Ended up having to send it back and refunded.

While waiting for the refund back to my account, I happened to find a slightly more expensive but actual mint option.  Listed as used, it's just barely under 3 months old and is flawless.  Definitely makes up for the previous one.  Here's my 2026 Gibson Les Paul Standard 60's in honey amber.
